Francesca! Better hurry, dear!

I've got to get moving,

Mrs. Kinsolving.

Maybe you'd better go up

and get her.

Francesca!

Francesca?

Francesca.

Kenny!

No!

- Mrs. Kinsolving.

- Yes.

This is your daughter-in-law's.

Little girl.

Little lady.

You dig playing games, right?

No!

No!

Help!

Help!

No!

Won't you come into my house

and have some coffee?

Perhaps some tea?

Kathleen can get it for us.

Anything simple

Kathleen does quite well.

Remarkable girl, really.
